Hearts of Fire

It was the summer of Sixty Four

We ran the streets on the shore

And in every game we played we knew we had it made

Like no other time before

I was just a man you were still a child

Two hearts that were running wild

There was no need to pretend

You became more than a friend they were days without an end

We laughed where we played

We made love where we laid in the light again we'd run

When the night called the tune we'd shoot at the moon

And laugh at what we'd done.

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember my friend

We didn't think it would end

Together then we ran

This boy became a man

They burn on those hearts of fire

They burn on those hearts of fire

Hearts of fire.

And by Seventy Two I was running free

It was just the way I wanted to be

I thought I'd never break again I won't wear love like a chain

To be in love is to be in pain

As the warrior then I fall from grace

When we met again face to face

I thought I'd left our love for dead

But my heart it ruled my head

And I fell in love instead

We fought where we played

We made love where we laid

Just like the time before

And if the battle should tear us apart

We won't go to war no more

We were hearts of fire

Do you remember my friend

We didn't think it would end

Together then we ran

Turn a boy into a man

They burn on those hearts of fire

They burn on those hearts of fire

Hearts of fire.
